Qantas Fare Classes

[Archphoto]

Has anyone been able to decipher the booking classes for Qantas on their Red e-Deals?

I'm about to do some flights for clients here in Asia, who want the cheapest flights possible when I do some flights back in AU. I want to credit to CX, but without knowing the fare classes, I could end up shooting myself in the foot! Only V & L earn, so the other classes are kind of useless.

I know you used to be able to view the source code, but that disappeared and now I'm rather stumped. Apart from having to call (and incur the "Assistance Levy") anyone else had luck with this?

The lack of transparency on the QF website vs. other OW carriers is laughable and becoming a real PITA. Hopefully it was discussed at the earlier IT meeting that some have mentioned - would certainly be helpful to those who want to know and for those who don't, they won't even notice the respective letter next to the flight selected on the confirmation page before purchasing.

Then again, it might also be possible that pigs are flying south for winter this year too . . . . . . :mrgreen:

It's still possible to view the page source. There is also a grease monkey script floating around in AFF in another thread thanks to serfty

dunno if it will help, but you can still call and discuss the airfares available on line without incurring an assistance fee. Get all the information you need and then book yourself on line.

Thanks guys - I'll have a look at the Greasemonkey scripts to see if I can figure it out, and if that fails me, I'll give them a call to see which of the cheapest are (hopefully) V or L.

Update: Serfty's script works perfectly in FF & Safari! Unfortunately, couldn't get it to work in Chrome, despite having the relevant extensions installed.

For Safari users, NinjaKit works perfectly: http://www.reddit.com/r/apple/comments/dd2sk/ninjakit_greasemonkey_for_safari/
